But, some drivers don't like it. It's kinda like jumping their queue :-)

No doubt they're the same drivers who flash and/or hoot when overtaken
perfectly legitimately and legally, block people who wish to pass on
the motorway by sitting in the wrong lane, etc. There's only a small
number of such idiots, but they cause a huge amount of delay, and also
frustration and bad feeling, both of which ultimately lead to crashes.

If the government were really serious about improving road safety, it
would attempt to educate these people, and have the police deal
robustly with those who insisted on continuing to impede others
unnecessarily. But the government does nothing about them, because
that might actually improve things for normal motorists, and we
couldn't have that. (And, of course, that's why the car-haters in
this group condone the actions of such idiots, and probably *are* such
idiots whenever they hypocritically drive themselves.)
